in thread Suggestion for regular expression speed improvement.

Yes. My initial idea was to keep CSV, RE parsing separate but I thought may be If could get the same performance from RE, then need not to have a CSV parser. But now I understand that is not possible to think of. So, need to switch back to my old approach where I do two parsing separately. So, from the user interface user will have simple/advanced parsing modes. Thanks for your suggestion.

    Dont forget unpack. For fixed width fields its pretty much the fastest choice you have. And many logfiles are fixed width.
